Bus Related Outings and Reviews
(07 Mar 2016, 11:46 pm)James101 Another challenge I'd like to do. Middlesbrough to Manchester in one day, using only stagecarriage services and on a single bus ticket. Made possible by the Dalesbus network which is to return this year, this journey is based on Sunday 2015 timetables and the full journey is covered on a £12 Dales Freedom Rover ticket.
[830] 0905 Middlesbrough OR 0947 Darlington - Ingleton 1220
[581] 1300 Ingleton - Settle 1325
same vehicle continues as [580] 1330 Settle - Skipton 1410
[872] 1455 Skipton - Manchester 1751
Return on a Megabus/Nat Ex. at additional cost.
It won't be everybody's cup of tea but I find it very interesting that such a long journey is possible on just 3 vehicles, even if it is 3 hours on a solo!
Would involve some epic scenery and interesting routes. If you're able to entertain yourself with music or a good read along the way it could be a fun day out.
